What G&F Parents LOVE and Want to Share: Recommendation Sunday

Every Sunday morning, hundreds (thousands?) of us sit patiently sipping coffee with our Amazon carts ready, waiting for the Grown and Flown Parents Recommendation Sunday thread to start.

A cauliflower (!!) shake that tastes like a Wendy’s think and Frosty – “a package of frozen Califlower rice, one Premier protein shake, and compatable flavor Torani Sugar free syrup. Blend in blender ( I have a Ninja).

Having trouble sleeping? (We all answer, YES!!, at once.) Red LED night lights are a thing that might help according to someone in the group who swears by them.

Green Giant Vege Tots – NOT tater tots but next to them in the freezer section at the grocery store.
